Saying Good-bye/Scrapping a TT
I doubt that many on the forum will remember me, given my near-total absence from RV.Net for over 5 years. For those who do, well, my disappearance is directly linked to the house we bought in late 2017. It was a foreclosure sale and since settlement has consumed equally enormous amounts of our money and our time. Which brings me to the reason for this post....
Our beloved Coachmen Futura has sat idle for over 5 years. It has been covered but that apparently did little or no good. In summary, the awning is shot, the tires are timed out, the LP tanks are likewise out of test and a couple of months back I discovered the floor in the rear of the trailer is soft (and it had already been repaired once at a substantial cost). As if all that were not bad enough, my wife shared that she no longer feels the need to travel with our trailer anymore (we are now in a fairly rural area).
So...
Has anyone ever taken their trailer to a salvage yard? Or maybe sold one for parts? I would be most appreciative of advice from all angles. And thanks to all who choose to reply.
